Plaintiff is the Rev. J. C. Rawl ings, 79, who heads a Kentucky group called “Friends of Public Schools"—a unit of the nationwide P.O.A.U. (Protestants And Other Americans United For Separation of Church and State).

Says Ministers OK Archbishop Keeps Hands Off FRANKFORT. Ky. (NO Ouster of 85 nun-teachers from Kentucky public schools has been asked in a suit by a retired Methodist minister. The suit asked Franklin County Circuit Court to prevent the sending of State school funds to districts which employ nuns as teachers or provide trans portation for parochial school stu dents. When P.O.A.U. first went into action in Kentucky, a group visit ed Archbishop John A. Floersh of Louisville and asked him to remove all nuns from public schools. The Archbishop said that, as a Bishop, he had no right to interfere in the administration of the Kentucky public schools. P.O.A.U. then asked Kentucky Attorney General J. D. Buckman, Jr., to file a suit against county school boards that hire nuns. He refused, stating he saw no evi dence that the teaching nuns were violating the law. The Kentucky suit, filed for Rev. Rawlings by Attorney Eugene Siler -who also is legal advisor to the P.O.A.U. unit listed six county boards ot education in which he claimed there are vio lations of the principle of church and state and violations tucky laws.
